Despite variable weather conditions going from heat to rain and chill then back to heat again, the fishing at Rollover has been steady. The flounder run is top priority for most anglers but speckled trout and redfish are still providing action for those who seek both. Night-shift and day-shift anglers are reaping their rewards; same for bay waders and surf casters. What will happen to the fishing after this weeks predicted chill down hits can only be reported next week, but for now the fish are very active and providing lots of fun for anglers.
